Derby Daze

There are a few events we look forward to every year. We've already covered the Big Apple BBQ Festival in this space (and will be covering it again soon!), but one of the other annual shindigs is the Kentucky Derby Party hosted by the Terry's. This year was the 6th annual running of 'Southern girls in big hats' in Manhattan...and as billed, there were a lot of Southern girls in big hats! There were also lots of bow ties, seersucker, and way too much bourbon. A few highlights from the event coming your way...

Bourbon, bourbon and more bourbon. 

Not my drink. :( 

A picture of Barry and I...

...but to get the full effect you need a full body shot. Yeah that's right, he pulled off a shorts suit! 

The crowd

They had a bluegrass band on the back porch. That's our friend Austin with the photo bomb.

...and a nice view of Union Square for good measure.
